A sequel to 2019's Metro Exodus is reportedly deep into development, even fully playable, and could release as soon as 2024.That's according to Insider Gaming's sources, who suggest that an official reveal will come later in the year.
Developer 4A games have previously revealed the existence of the title, writing in 2020 that "It’s no secret that we have already started work on the next Metro game. Using everything we’ve learned from the last 15 years, we’ve set our sights even higher – the next title is being built for Gen 9 consoles and PC, with a complete overhaul of our engine and renderer to take advantage of the new power, storage, and hardware supported ray tracing afforded by the new consoles."
Little else is known about the game, outside of it perhaps beginning with a dream sequence, but it's fairly safe to assume it will follow in the footsteps of the excellent and gorgeous Metro Exodus. Players will no doubt find themselves creeping through the ruins of a world post-nuclear war, now inhabited by nightmarish abominations and the tattered remnants of extremist groups fighting over the scraps that remain.
Are you excited by the prospect of a Metro Exodus sequel? Do you think the 2024 release window is reasonable, or perhaps a bit too optimistic? Trade bullets for other essential goods in the comments section below.

Yes please, give it to me baby.
Oh hell yeah this is great news for me! I’ve been a huge metro fan since playing 2033 at release and each game has been better than the last so I’m there day one and I’m already unreasonably hyped lol
personally metro 2033 was the best then last light then exodus
Yessss!!! I love this franchise!
I like the previous 3 Metro games, this 4th I probably will also like. So this is good news.
And they still won't fix the glitched Trophies in Exodus. Just like how the original version of Last Light still has issues with its DLC too.
I wish 4A the best, but honestly, they need to work on their QA processes.
I liked Exodus. The more open environments were a good fit, as I always felt 2033 and LL were a bit corridor-y and heavy on set pieces at times.
N.i.c.e. metro exodus is a really good game.so a sequel is welcome.word up son
Oh yeah I'll definitely be picking this up. Metro is in my opinion the best single player fps series around. Really great games and Exodus was really brilliant. Only issue is it was a bit buggy here and there but if they can clean that up a bit then they are good because everything else about Exodus was excellent.
Really enjoyed the upgraded PS5 version of this and the DLC was excellent! With some improvements to enemy AI and building on their open world ambitions, that they demonstrated the potential of, particularly in Sam's Story, this could be a banger!
Personally never enjoyed the metro series even when it went semi-open world, but can appreciate the high quality that the games have and am happy for fans of the series. Finger crossed the sequel is everything the fans want.
I was so excited to play Exodus and I got the PS5 edition and it just did NOT click with me. I thought the visuals were garbage and the gameplay loop in the open world just felt like I was constantly wasting my limited resources.
I'm interested to find out what direction a new one goes though.
Not long ago gone through the PS5 version of Exodus on Extra and managed to grab both its dlc for 3.99 too. Enjoyable game but some of the environment's I'd constantaly get stuck to while traversing giving the game that clunky feel. Everything else was fine and is well worth a playthrough if havent done so already. Character just got stuck to things and did feel slow and clunky at times which was annoying. Trophies never determine a games quality but was very annoyed by them cause its forcing the player to play a certain way if you want the platinum which I personally felt more annoyed by than my character getting stuck to things
Only played the first one so far and loved it (got the other two too), great news about the next one
I'm huge fan of Metro games. Metro exodus was clearly the best out of 3 imo. However I was super gutted when I got the bad ending.
Another game for me to add to my collection and then never play @_@.
That's cool!
So glad we will see something next year. I hope they make it scary and suspenful again, it really gave the game that edge it needed, where Exodus felt to open and lose some of that edge. I still enjoyed Exodus.
For the love of all that's holey put in a multi-player campaign. Even a survival mode to play with friends or a small open map to play against other people as bandits fighting over scraps of a dying world. Call of duty and battle field have way to much controll over the multi-player style maps they have.
Metro series - my flagship in non VR games. Definitely I'll miss Miller.
